    Awesome! Be sure to post this in the team event (run by @Phamyns) post if you haven't already. I'll be announcing this shortly, but this contest (the Catnip Games contest) will not run this upcoming week starting at Noon on Friday CT to Noon next Friday there will be no weekly tourney from my end. https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/f...ual-team-fishing-contest.164181/#post-1298507

    When this one starts back up the following week, be sure to check for new contest format and rules.

    Also, I might be late getting out this week's prizes to the 3 winners. I'll try to send out Saturday morning since I won't be on the stream, but it'll be Monday morning at the latest for those. Expect a new contest format when this contest returns in a week ;) I'll leave a message with Chris who the winners were so he can announce on the stream :)

    @Elgarion There are two trophies you are not handing out - small bronze and small gold one. There are also many beautiful scenes which are not part of this contest.
    How about having each week 1 NPC town for the bronze trophy and 1 adventure scene for the gold one?

    I've used one for an "ooooops" award/consolation prize, hehe. The other I'm saving for a rainy day as a special one too. They're tiny like the participation trophies so not special enough for a full contest category. Good thinking to give it purpose though. Soon! Maybe I'll factor that into the new contest's rewrite this week.

    Guys, I need 1 more week to prep the new contest. I fell behind this week on a few things since I was squeezing in training and practicing the training items. So if anyone wants to run a fishing contest this upcoming week as well, please let me know -- I'd be happy to post it :) Guaranteed though, 100%, I'll have this ready to go by next Friday at noon, and it'll be announced in the weekly update next week as to the new format. Apologies! Also, it's a good time to suggest contest changes. I forgot to ask for feedback as to how the contest has been going ;)

    Alrighty, the contest is back on starting at Noon CT on Friday:



    FISHING PRIZES & OBJECTIVES:
    All prizes will be no-trade. Players may donate additional prizes in the name of their guilds or towns to sweeten the pot. This event timeframe is Friday the 11th at Noon CT to Friday the 18th at Noon CT, and these are the prizes and goals for the indicated week:

    Largest FETID WATER Fish (Town):
    -- Rules: Must be caught from one of these towns
    -- Prizes: Player Owned Town Row Lot Deed, Large Gold Fishing Trophy
    Caer Dracwych (@Bowen Bloodgood)
    New Britannian Market, Novia West of Brittany (@Lord Andernut)
    Rock Ridge, Mistrendur Middle Island (@Redhammer)
    RECOMMENDED: Please put a mailbox for your anglers to use by the water. For salt or fetid water contests, town owners can receive a loaner statue to convert the water type of their town to that of the contest, if required.
    Largest Fish (PvP):
    -- Rules: Must be caught in Kas Ruins
    -- Prizes: 2 Chained Obsidian Shard 3-Packs, Large Silver Fishing Trophy

    Largest Lava Fish:
    -- Rules: Must be caught in Sunless Barrens
    -- Prizes: Fishing Rod of Prosperity, Large Bronze Fishing Trophy

    Participation Prizes:
    -- Rules: Everyone who caught at least 1 trophy fish in this week's locations
    -- Prizes: Small Silver Fishing Trophy

    CROSS-OVER EVENTS:
    Prizes provided by the Community Manager will be available for participants and winners of the Fishing event, but governors, guild leaders and players are welcome to sweeten the pot by providing additional prizes based on objective criteria entirely of their own design. In fact, please consider planning events to overlap the duration and chosen weekly locations of the PvP and Fishing developer events. Please post these events in the in-game events forums and the Community Manager will promote accordingly. Please submit links to event threads which take place in the spotlighted towns, PvP zone or PvE zone.

    Current Crossovers:
    -- No crossover events announced.

    HOW TO PARTICPATE:
    To participate, players need merely catch trophy fish in the 5 locations indicated above. The locations will change every week at Noon CT on Friday, so be sure to pay attention to the announcements for new locations each week! Please do not send your fish to Elgarion via the in-game mail system. Through data logging, he'll be able to determine the winners. SO please hold on to your fish, and feel free to use them in any fashion after the catch.

    Please note, you no longer need to send me your fish in the in-game mail system. I'll track the sizes using a data logging feature going forward. :)
